“Also I have made a decree, that whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon; and let his house be made a dunghill for this. let him: Chaldee, let him be destroyed”
Ezra 6:11 (KJV)
Commentary on Ezra 6:11
The penalty decree—'whosoever shall alter this word, let timber be pulled down from his house, and being set up, let him be hanged thereon'—imposes severe punishment for violation. This brutal enforcement protected the restoration work from interference. The additional curse 'and let his house be made a dunghill for this' threatens ultimate shame. God's purposes are so important that He providentially arranges even severe penalties to protect His work.
